丫丫刚满17个月, 说是museum, 其实对她这么大的孩子来说，　就是个大游乐场．　周六我们第一次去, 发现了这好地方，　第二天上午又带她去玩了俩钟头，　大冬天的比关在家里强多了，　对大人孩子都好．

In toddler's terrain (for kids under 3 only):

She's fascinated by this ball floating in the air!

In the "water room", where kids learn to explore the nature of water, where it comes from, where it goes and what it does. Mostly, they love to make a splash!

Healthyville: learn about vegetables, fruits, doctors, dentists, ambulance, etc...

She didn't care too much for the doctors, but sure loves to push buttons wherever she can!

这地方我也是刚从朋友那听说的，　原来离我家特近，　开车才１５分钟，　平时却从来没有注意过高速公路上那个巨大的牌子：＂Children's Museum", 一下出口就是，　我都奇怪那么显眼的地方我在这住了这么多年怎么都不知道，　看来和自己无关的东西就容易视而不见啊！

我们加入了family plus membership，　一年$175，　全年随便去多少次都免费（否则一次$9/人），　package包括父母和家里所有孩子，　甚至包括两位grandparents, or any 2 guests accompanied by member．　这简直太划算了．　而且这membership是全国一百多家Children's Museums连网的，　有了这会员证也可以免费去其他的children's museums，　喜欢旅游的家庭可以考虑．　

若有兴趣的话, 大家可以去这里看看有没有离你家比较近的:
